The Bold North Difference
A roof replacement is the single largest exterior investment most Minnesota homeowners make — and the material and installation quality you choose determines how that investment holds up through decades of Minnesota winters, hail seasons, and freeze-thaw cycles. Bold North Exteriors approaches every replacement the same way: free inspection, honest assessment of what your roof needs, and a written quote that explains exactly what you're getting and why. No upsell, no hidden fees, no surprises on install day.
What separates Bold North from the competition starts with materials. While most contractors use whatever entry-level shingles keep their margins high, we install IKO Dynasty Class 3 impact-resistant shingles as our baseline on every job. IKO Dynasty features ArmourZone reinforced nailing, FastLock sealant, wind resistance up to 130 mph, and a Class 3 impact rating that qualifies your home for potential insurance premium discounts with major carriers including State Farm and USAA. This is what we use because it is genuinely the right product for Minnesota — not because it is the cheapest option available.
Most residential roof replacements are completed in one to two days. We handle permit pulling, material delivery coordination, full tear-off to the deck, underlayment, drip edge, and ridge ventilation — then walk the completed job with you before we leave. We work clean, protect your landscaping, and leave your property in better shape than we found it. If your replacement is storm-related, we coordinate the insurance claim process with you from the first inspection through final payment so you're not navigating it alone.
Options we offer
Roofing Materials We Install
IKO Dynasty — Class 3 Impact Resistant
Our standard shingle on every install. Features ArmourZone reinforced nailing, FastLock sealant for wind resistance up to 130 mph, a Class 3 impact rating, and over 30 color blends. Qualifies homeowners for potential insurance premium discounts of up to 20%.
IKO Nordic — Class 4 Impact Resistant
IKO's top-tier shingle with polymer-modified asphalt for maximum flexibility in cold weather. Class 4 impact rating — the highest available. Available as an upgrade for homeowners wanting the ultimate hail protection.
Architectural Shingles — Standard Grade
For budget-conscious replacements where impact rating isn't a priority. We still install correctly and completely — same process, same care, same cleanup.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam and metal panel systems for homeowners wanting a 40–70 year lifespan. Higher upfront cost, dramatically lower long-term maintenance. We'll give you an honest comparison so you can make the right call.

Why Bold North
The Right Team For the Job
IKO Certified Installer
Certification means our installation meets IKO's exact specifications — which is required for full manufacturer warranty eligibility. Most contractors install shingles. We install them correctly.
Class 3 as the Baseline
We don't offer Class 3 as a premium upgrade. It's our standard. That means every homeowner gets impact-resistant shingles without having to ask or pay extra.
Honest Repair vs. Replacement
If your roof can be repaired rather than replaced, we'll tell you that. We've turned down replacement jobs that didn't need replacing. That honesty is why our customers refer us to their neighbors.
What Homeowners Say
Don't just take our word for it - hear from real Minnesota homeowners who've experienced our no- pressure, transparent estimate process.
It was fantastic working with Jon and Bold North Exteriors. We had just a small job for him to do and he took the time to find the exact color match and made sure it was perfect. Communication was great and would highly recommend him anytime. Whenever we need roofing done in the future, Jon is the guy we will call.
Jen Wood
They did a good job with installing two new exterior doors. Good communication, on schedule, cleaned up properly afterward.
Dawn Packard
Jon from Bold North Exteriors delivered on a tricky project for us and was top notch! I would not hesitate to use him for future needs or to recommend him to anyone.

Common Questions
Roof Replacement FAQ
How much does a roof replacement cost in Minnesota?
Most residential roof replacements in Minnesota run between $8,000 and $16,000 depending on the home's square footage, roof pitch, and materials chosen. Homes with storm damage covered by insurance often pay significantly less out of pocket — sometimes nothing — once the claim is properly documented. We provide free written estimates so you know exactly where you stand before committing to anything.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential replacements are completed in one to two days for an average-sized Minnesota home. We arrive, tear off the old roof to the deck, inspect and repair any deck damage, install the complete system including underlayment and ridge ventilation, and do a full cleanup — all in a single day for most jobs. We'll give you a realistic timeline when we provide your estimate.
Do you use IKO shingles on every replacement?
Yes — IKO Dynasty Class 3 impact-resistant shingles are our standard on every residential replacement. We chose IKO because they are a proven manufacturer with 70-plus years of performance history, and the Dynasty line's Class 3 rating is the right product for Minnesota's hail and wind exposure. If you want to upgrade to Class 4 Nordic shingles, we can discuss that too.
Will my insurance cover my roof replacement?
If your roof has storm damage from hail or wind, there is a strong chance your homeowner's insurance covers all or most of the replacement cost. We attend the adjuster inspection with you, document the damage the way adjusters need to see it, and make sure nothing gets missed. Most of our customers are surprised by how much their policy covers when the damage is properly documented.
